Samuel D. ★★★★★

I planted these in late spring and was amazed by the vibrant, multi-colored ears they produced by fall. The stalks grew strong and sturdy, even through a dry spell. Definitely a unique and rewarding variety to grow.

Christopher L. ★★★★★

The seeds germinated quickly and the stalks grew sturdy even through a couple of light frosts. I was thrilled to see the ears developing in such a rainbow of colors, exactly like the description promised. Definitely saving some kernels to replant next season.

Riley S. ★★★★★

Planted these in a sunny patch and five days later I had sturdy little sprouts poking up all over. The color range in the dried ears is incredible, from deep burgundy to bright orange. A really rewarding plant to grow for its looks alone.
